`
`Resistance
`The AC resistance of a conductor in a transmission line is based on the calculation of its DC resistance.
`If DC is flowing along a round cylindrical conductor, the current is uniformly distributed over its cross-
`section area and the DC resistance is evaluated by:
`
`Rd, = —
`P1 [Cl]
`A
`where p = conductor resistivity at a given temperature (S2-m)
`/ = conductor length (m)
`A = conductor cross-section area (m2)
`If AC current is flowing, rather than DC current, the conductor effective resistance is higher due to
`the skin effect (presented in the next section).
`
`(4.15)
`
`Frequency Effect
`The frequency of the AC voltage produces a second effect on the conductor resistance due to the
`nonuniform distribution of the current. This phenomenon is known as skin effect. As frequency increases,
`the current tends to go toward the surface of the conductor and the current density decreases at the
`center. Skin effect reduces the effective cross-section area used by the current and thus the effective
`resistance increases. Also, although in small amount, a further resistance increase occurs when other
`current-carrying conductors are present in the immediate vicinity. A skin correction factor k, obtained
`by differential equations and Bessel functions, is considered to reevaluate the AC resistance. For 60 Hz,
`k is estimated around 1.02:
`
`Rac. = Roc k
`
`(4.16)
`
`Other variations in resistance are caused by:
`
`• temperature
`• spiraling of stranded conductors
`• bundle conductors arrangement
`
`Temperature Effect
`The resistivity of any metal varies linearly over an operating temperature, and therefore the resistance of
`any conductor suffers the same variations. As temperature rises, the resistance increases linearly, according
`to the following equation:
`
`=
`R2
`
`IT F t2 )
`T + t
`
`(4.17)
`
`where R2 = resistance at second temperature t2 (°C)
`R, = resistance at initial temperature t, (°C)
`T = temperature coefficient for the particular material (°C)
`
`Resistivity (p) and temperature coefficient ( T) constants depend on the particular conductor material.
`Table 4.8 lists resistivity and temperature coefficients of some typical conductor materials.
`
`Spiraling and Bundle Conductor Effect
`There are two types of transmission line conductors: overhead and underground. Overhead conductors,
`made of naked metal and suspended on insulators, are preferred over underground conductors because
`of the lower cost and ease of maintenance.

`FIGURE 4.51 Stranded aluminum conductor with stranded steel core (ACSR).
`
`In overhead transmission lines, aluminum is a common material because of the lower cost and lighter
`weight compared to copper, although more cross-section area is needed to conduct the same amount of
`current. The aluminum conductor, steel-reinforced (ACSR), is one of the most used conductors. It consists
`of alternate layers of stranded conductors, spiraled in opposite directions to hold the strands together,
`surrounding a core of steel strands as shown in Fig. 4.51. The purpose of introducing a steel core inside
`the stranded aluminum conductors is to obtain a high strength-to-weight ratio. A stranded conductor
`offers more flexibility and is easier to manufacture than a solid large conductor. However, the total
`resistance is increased because the outside strands are larger than the inside strands due to the spiraling.
`The resistance of each wound conductor at any layer, per unit length, is based on its total length as
`follows:

`resistances per layer.
